WH should put the camera on Spicer and not the press. Then we would see if they really care about the camera or them being on it.

It wouldn't matter what way the Press Department goes, Acosta is a jerk, and always has been...

If he doesn't get immediate attention and ten thousands questions answered he is not happy...

I say take his credentials away...permanently!!!

It depends. Is he helping or hurting the CNN brand?

Why doesn’t Spicer pull Acosta press credentials and just exclude him? If reporters won’t be civil, bounce them out on their ears.

There are only three brands that come with CNN:

CNNisISIS; CNN: Communist New Network; CNN: Clinton News Network...

Any other ‘brand’ is unheard of with CNN...

“ACOSTA: It’s a legitimate question. You are a taxpayer-funded spokesman for the United States government. Can you at least give us an explanation of why the cameras are off?”

Why are DEMOCRATS never called on as, being ‘taxpayer-funded’ and RESPONSIBLE for their actions, Jim?

What a peevish little @sshole. He can’t stand the fact that President Trump will not be bullied by him.

Shut up, Jim, shut your lying fake news mouth.

Fox News always got questions. MSNBC always got questions during the previous administrations. This is a new thing this White House is doing to us here at CNN and to a couple other news outlets as well.

And back when Talon News got questions all the liberal frauds went ape over it.

Damn! I’m getting tired of hearing about cameras. I tune in CNN for fake Russian news. Acosta better get his priorities strait or I’ll just have to listen to some other lying stooges.

This administration does not owe them anything!

CNN is mixing up privilages with a wrong headed notion of rights.

CNNS Accusta is a camera hound....He needs to look at the history of the Press Briefings as they were not always put on camera. In fact i think it was Clinton who established it and later said he regretted that. This isn’t something a President has to do..though obvious the Press Reporters covet being seen on camera and as much hooking and baiting so they can get on TV later on.....the more visuals they can get the more their popularity rises or lowers.

They need to know we understand they are like celebrities who can’t seem to handle not being noticed....But we can handle very well not seeing their faces.
